Yuan’s Ascension

In the distant Cang Feng Eldritch World, the elite Amethyst Cradle/Shambhala cultivators from across the eldritch world had gathered in the Fourth Origin Eldritch Field.

A decade had passed.

Wu Yuan’s body refiner self had already adapted to the environment, forming friendships with many talented individuals from the Origin Eldritch Field.

His reputation grew quickly. Merely displaying his comprehension of the Celestial Body Dao at the second-level True Intent stage earned him the recognition of many members of the Fourth Origin Eldritch Field, who regarded him as a future heaven-tier member of the field.

Within the Essence Tower on the void continent, Wu Yuan sat in lotus position, suspended mid-air. A silver triangular prism crystal floated above his head—the True Spatial Domain Tome.

Streams of knowledge surged into his mind, the flood of information rich with cultivation guidance pertaining to the True Spatial Domain. Meanwhile, an intangible mental imprint slowly manifested in his consciousness.

In a matter of days, the transfer of the inheritance was complete, and the mysterious True Spatial Domain Tome dissipated.

So this is the True Domain Dao. Wu Yuan’s body refiner self felt a flash of clarity, as though a veil had been lifted from his understanding.

Having received the Compendium of the Law of Space from Immortal Sovereign Bei You, along with the True Domain Law Codex, Wu Yuan now had an in-depth grasp of how to go about comprehending the Law of Space, especially the Law of True Domain.

The Qiankun Dao, also known as spatial fluctuation, excels in evasion. Astral Monarch Hou Qu and the others are so formidable because they've mastered the complete Qiankun Dao.

The True Domain Dao, also known as spatial domain, is supreme in domain creation, hailed as one of the strongest Intermediate Laws for domain manipulation.

Each of the three Intermediate Laws of Space was extraordinary, each uniquely powerful. Once unified to form the complete Space Dao, the result was naturally terrifying, subtly surpassing almost all other Greater Laws.

These three Intermediate Laws are formed by the fusion of six Lesser Laws. Wu Yuan mused.

The six Lesser Laws of Space: Spatial Trace, Dimensional Blade, Spatial Dimension, Spatial Tide, Void Shift, and Spatial Fracture.

The Spatial Rift Dao was the fusion Dimensional Blade, Spatial Fracture, and Spatial Dimension.

The Qiankun Dao was the fusion Spatial Trace, Void Shift, and Spatial Dimension.

The True Domain Dao was the fusion of Spatial Trace, Spatial Tide, and Spatial Dimension.

The Qiankun Dao and True Domain Dao have much in common, while the foundation of the entire Space Dao is Spatial Dimension. Wu Yuan reflected.

My first task is to contemplate the Spatial Dimension Dao. Then, I’ll tackle the other Lesser Space Laws. Finally, I’ll attempt to fuse them and see which path suits me best. Wu Yuan decided.

The True Domain Dao was critical for both the Greater Laws of Space and Life. But the Qiankun Dao was equally desirable to Wu Yuan.

From what he understood, mastering the Qiankun Dao would make one nearly invincible in the vast macrocosm, difficult for even Immortal Sovereigns to slay.

…

With the shared consciousness between true selves, the moment Wu Yuan’s body refiner self acquired the True Domain Law Codex, it was as if his qi refiner self obtained it as well.

With his plan laid out, Wu Yuan’s two true selves began cultivating. His progress was startlingly fast, especially for his qi refiner self.

His Yuan Soul had an acute sensitivity to the Fragmentary Spatial Layer. Guided by the True Domain Law Codex, the Compendium of the Law of Space, and the Qiankun Divine Stele, Wu Yuan’s comprehension of the Spatial Dimension Dao advanced at an alarming rate.

A month later, in the Immortal Belvedere, Wu Yuan sat in his residence, staring at the flame-like liquid in front of him.

So this is the Fire Divine Gorge Brew. Wu Yuan carefully consumed it.

Immediately, a surge of power erupted within him. His soul felt as if it were boiling, his body straining to contain the overwhelming energy. Waves of mystical power merged into his being, both soul and body.

My perception of Space has sharpened. Wu Yuan could feel it at once.

He marveled at the brew’s potency. No wonder even Astral Monarchs coveted this treasure.

From the voidrealm immortal slip Astral Monarch Gu Lai had provided, he knew the Fire Divine Gorge Brew had two primary effects. First, it heightened sensitivity to the essence of Space’s fluctuations. Second, it gradually transformed both the soul and body.

This Fire Divine Gorge Brew is divided into a hundred doses, with each dose lasting a month. That gives me nearly nine years. Wu Yuan thought.

After nine years, continued use would diminish its effects. Similarly, the guiding effect of the Qiankun Divine Stele would weaken over time.

Unless my Yuan Soul evolves, these next nine years will be the prime time to make progress. I cannot afford to waste a single moment. Wu Yuan plunged into cultivation with renewed determination.

His progress was astonishing. In less than a year, Wu Yuan found himself grappling with an impossible truth.

Have I truly reached the seventh-level Domain stage of Spatial Dimension without realizing it?

Even with the wealth of resources at his disposal, such rapid advancement would leave most immortal cultivators speechless.

Having mastered the Spatial Dimension Dao to such a profound extent, Wu Yuan turned his attention to the other Lesser Laws of Space.

With breathtaking speed, he soon reached the initiate threshold for the Spatial Trace Dao, Spatial Tide Dao, and Void Shift Dao.

Even Wu Yuan was taken aback by how quickly he progressed.

Could it be that I have an innate affinity for the Space Dao? He mused.

But it wasn’t long before Wu Yuan encountered his first hurdle. His attempts to comprehend Dimensional Blade and Spatial Fracture were significantly slower.

After some thought, Wu Yuan understood. Among the three Intermediate Laws of Space, the True Domain Dao suits me best, followed by the Qiankun Dao. The Spatial Rift Dao, however, is the least compatible with my nature. He concluded.

He adjusted his approach swiftly. Most of his focus would now be dedicated to unraveling the profundities of the True Domain Dao, with some attention given to the Qiankun Dao.

These two Daos shared many similarities, differing only in the added comprehension of Void Shift.

As for the Spatial Rift Dao? Wu Yuan set it aside without hesitation. His mental energy was finite, after all.

I’ll wait until I’ve mastered the True Intent of both True Domain and Qiankun. He decided, mind racing with possibilities.

In stark contrast to his varying aptitudes for the three Intermediate Laws of Space, Wu Yuan's aptitude for the three Intermediate Laws of the Life Dao was uniformly exceptional.

The path forward was clear.

His decision to continue cultivating the Qiankun Dao stemmed from a desire to enhance his ability to evade danger. Master Dong Yang’s words echoed in his mind: survival must always take precedence.

…

Three years after Wu Yuan entered the Immortal Belvedere.

“Ming Jian has cleared level eleven of the Divine Stele Test!"

"Inconceivable!"

"To progress from level one to level eleven in just three years? What manner of talent is this? And he’s only at the Amethyst Cradle phase!" The nearly two thousand cultivators training alongside him were left dumbfounded.

Clearing level eleven indicated reaching the True Intent stage of a Lesser Law. For most Lesser Laws, this was unremarkable. But for the notoriously difficult Law of Space? It was nothing short of miraculous.

…

Six years into his stay at the Immortal Belvedere, Wu Yuan cleared level fourteen of the Divine Stele Test, causing an even greater stir.

…

In his ninth year, Wu Yuan shattered all expectations, conquering level seventeen. His terrifying rate of progress astonished not only his peers but also drew the attention of Astral Monarch Gu Lai.

"Master," Astral Monarch Gu Lai reported, his voice tinged with disbelief. "Junior Nephew Ming Jian has comprehended Spatial Trace, Spatial Dimension, Spatial Tide, and Void Shift to the True Intent stage. And it’s only been nine years.

Such progress... In all my millions of years at the Immortal Belvedere, no, even in the past billions of years of the immortal world's history, I doubt there has ever been such a monstrous prodigy.

Junior Nephew Ming Jian is clearly an unparalleled genius in the Space Dao," Astral Monarch Gu Lai concluded.

At the far end of the divine hall, Immortal Sovereign Bei You listened silently.

"Leave him be," Immortal Sovereign Bei You said dismissively. "Inform me when he has crystallized the True Intent of an Intermediate Law."

"As you command," Astral Monarch Gu Lai replied.

…

In Wu Yuan's meditation chamber, within his private residence at the Immortal Belvedere.

Four Lesser Laws, all at the first-level True Intent stage. Moreover, the power of the synergy between the three Lesser Laws is equivalent to that of the seventh-level True Intent stage of a single Lesser Law.

This was merely the result of their compatibility. Once fused to the first-level True Intent stage of an Intermediate Law, the power would increase tenfold, rivaling the first-level Dao Field stage of a Lesser Law. The fusion of Laws was the key to compensate for their individual weaknesses.

The foundation is laid. Now, it’s time to select a few secret arts and begin fusing these Laws. Wu Yuan decided, rising from the jade platform and leaving his residence.

…

Not long after, Wu Yuan had selected several suitable secret arts and began cultivating them in earnest.

Empowered by the transformative power of the Fire Divine Gorge Brew and honed by nine years of rigorous cultivation, Wu Yuan’s Yuan Soul had grown increasingly powerful.

Even without the Fire Divine Gorge Brew, his comprehension of the Space Dao remained fast, slowing only slightly.

However, the process of fusing the Laws was exponentially more difficult than mastering individual Lesser Laws.

Undeterred, Wu Yuan pressed forward, his progress steady and deliberate.

Time passed like a flowing river, and another six years slipped by.

Fifteen years had passed since Wu Yuan first entered the Immortal Belvedere. He was now eighty-eight years old.

Less than four years remain until the thirty-year deadline of the Immutable Token. Wu Yuan mused, opening his eyes slowly.

My body refiner self should prepare to depart. But before I leave, I must participate in the Fourth Origin Eldritch Field’s Heaven and Earth Tournament.
